For sure I agree.. But I was wondering if that style above is effective?
. They sell a 24 inch one I was gonna run on the outside of my frame under the pass. Door any thoughts ?

That looks like just an out and back tube. That might be enough if it were liquid cooled, but air cooled not so much. Its the total surface area that counts and most coolers will be 3x or 4x that.
